Lands End - John O'Groats...............DONE..............at last.!!
After a relatively easy 40miles I could see two pink specs in the
distance and soon realised it was Toby & Hattie waiting for me.
Once I reached them I could see Neil hobbling up the road pushing
a bike ready to do the last bit together. We set of for the finish
and Neil even with huge bandage on his knee could not resist getting
his big cog out (that's cog not c!!!) needless to say we finished
together and job was done.
It's been an emotional journey and overall a great road trip.
Can't wait to get home to see the girls on Sunday.
Here's to wearing normal clothes form now on no more lycra for a long
while.
Thanks again to everyone who has lent their support to this venture
and helped us raise over £7000 for the Cancer Treatment Research
Trust.

Massive well done to Paul and I am just sorry I could complete it
all with you it's a fantastic achievement.
With out making any promises and providing I can ride a bike again
It is very much my intention to come back and complete the 240 miles
from Tyndrum - John O'Groats so you better get training Chris.
Also what Paul forgot to tell you is that the jammy bugger rode over
900 hundred miles without a single puncture, just as well really as
he is still not quite sure how to fix one.
Can't wait to get home to see Sam and the kids missed them all dearly.
And Finally
All that's left if for us to say some thank you's to people who have
made this possible
Firstly to the person who had a word with the big man upstairs and
fixed the weather for us as apart from one day in Cornwall we never
really got wet.
To the Companies and organisations who sponsored us and helped us
out with the cost of running this trip - a special thank you to Joe
Giffen
Thanks to everyone who has donated and helped raise over £7,000
for CTRT bloody brilliant
Thanks for all the messages of support during the ride they were amazing
and really helped us
To James Prowse ( Big Jim ) - amazing performance on day 3 - still
a legend and a machine - thanks for all your messages and good luck
with Et Tap
To Chris - Thanks for getting Neil through day 4 when he was on knees
full of flu - thanks for bringing the laughs when needed and thanks
for all your support from training - to the actual ride. Cheers mate
To Stu - The Technical wiz behind our website and for keeping updated
everyday for us
To Toby and Harriet who selflessly looked after us, cooked for us
and generally got us safely from one end of the country to the other
- Now you can enjoy the whisky
Finally thanks to Kath and Sam for firstly allowing us to do this,
then putting up with us for months prior to doing it and finally for
your unconditional support during the ride.
Thank you
Neil and Paul |
